  • As It Has Been for Years the Paper Is from Sustainable and Managed
    LIFEFORCE REPORT 2011 INTRODUCTION As may be expected in the current economic situation, funds have been very difficult to find. Global economic problems are set to continue for years, and it is important to remember that the forces producing the dangerous economic climate are exactly the same as those producing the dangerous environmental climate, and numerous other environmental problems (please see the last subsection 'The Larger LifeForce). The only way that LifeForce can currently maintain active conservation work in the field is by giving modest financial support to our partner, the Satpuda Foundation – and their achievements make for some heartening reading. CONSERVATION WORK COMPLETED Village Re-Locations Six villages have been moved out of Melghat Tiger Reserve (MTR).
